Bowfish Kids, the children's clothing store at 14th Street and Boardwalk, encouraged its young customers to contribute, and they crafted 50 new cards on Saturday. Anybody who wants to contribute can stop by Bowfish on Sunday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to make more cards. People also can drop cards off at Shriver's or mail them to Shriver's at P.O.
